[wishlist?] spinsim integration?

[drawkula]

Is it possible to integrate Spinsim?

Maybe as an alternative program downloader (having a terminal window)?

Spinsim still coughs on many programs but definitely already is useful to test coding on the Propeller without a real board.

If Spinsim were available in PropellerIDE, lots of bugs would be found faster and it would improve fast and get even more useful much soon(er)...

Hi there,

Can you tell me a little more about Spinsim? How it works? What it does? What language it's written in? I know very little about that application or how it works under the hood. I've been interested in added some kind of simulation to PropellerIDE, but because of the specific nature of the application and the limited scenarios under which its applicable, its functionality that might be better suited as a plugin than a core part of the application. So then, how does it work? :P
